Welcome to Product Management: Mastering Product Roadmaps.
The traditional way of building product roadmaps just does not work in Agile environments. And teams mitigate this by either 1) tightly restricting access to their roadmap or 2) entirely abandoning the use of roadmaps.
It's time to reinvent the traditional product roadmap.
I created this course and packed it with practical, real-world experiences that I’ve gained working with Product Management teams around the world. All theory is paired with practical exercises we’ll complete together in your workbook.
What you’ll get from this course.
1. I’ll show you how design a roadmap template that incorporates the right level of detail, without overcommitting.
2. You’ll gain an in-depth understanding of approaches for identifying your roadmap stakeholders, gathering inputs, and understanding your business ecosystem.
3. We’ll then look at how to uncover and express roadmap themes and consider when to add features to your roadmap.
4. Then we'll do deep dive into roadmap prioritization, including avoiding common mistakes, and key frameworks that can be used. We'll also explore tried and tested methods for achieving stakeholder alignment.
5. In the final section, we'll do a deep dive of presentation options. I'll also show you how to keep your roadmap fresh and effectively communicate changes to stakeholders.
Why learn Modern Product Management?
The demand for the "strategic" Product Manager is growing rapidly. In fact, LinkedIn ranks "Product Manager" as one of the most promising jobs, with 29% year-over-year growth. More and more companies are finally figuring out how important this discipline and this role are to their success.
But Product Management practices are also widely misunderstood, with most product initiatives failing to launch. And of those that do launch, only a fraction delivers value to the intended customers.
In a field where so many teams follow counter-productive practices, copying others won't work.
Don't Imitate. Understand.
This course will teach you proven roadmapping techniques used by top product teams. And the practical portion will give you real-world skills that you can apply immediately.
If you're a Product Manager looking to level up your product roadmapping skills or are trying to transition into a new career, this course will help prepare you for success.
And if you work in a related role (Business Analyst, Project Manager, Developer, etc), you’re also in the right place.
